JASPER

You can see the other teams, but there is an invisible barrier preventing you from hearing them. You can assume that they can't hear you, either. There is a hefty serving of sweet wine and liquor, should you choose it. With a loaf of bread that you can slice. Nimue is in the center of the formation of teams, and when she speaks, you can hear her loud and clear.

"Storytelling has been a tradition of the knights of Camelot for some time. They would tell of the awesome feats of their king, and of their fellow knights... and... they were also prone to exaggeration in some cases."

There appears a small set of cards next to the liquor. You can read them, or you can implicitly understand them if you can't read.

"What feats have the heroes of Aather accomplished, I wonder? And what... exaggerations they may take? Before you, you will find prompts for your tales. You will write one for yourselves, for a set of knights, and for another team. I will select the most inspiring, as will your peers."

She tilts her head. "Ah, perhaps it is bad to encourage grandstanding..."

But before you can ask her, she vanishes.

I hardly know any of these people.

That'll make things easier to make up at least?

If the point is simply to tell lies about them, I suppose that's easy enough. Perhaps we should tell a story about dear Erika.

I can't imagine Erika trapped in a tower. Not enough murder.

Perhaps she is trapped in a tower because she has committed a murder. Or she may be attempting to solve one.

That would be in character . . . it might not appeal to the Persona in question overmuch, however.

And what would? I can't imagine any of Jasper as a maiden trapped in a tower. Not to mention rescuing one.

Let's say our brave protagonist journeys to a tall tower to investigate a series of murders. While there, she finds herself trapped in the tower with the murderer, and has to work together with the other inhabitants to apprehend him or her. She comes away having learned a valuable lesson about the importance of love and friendship.

Now isn't that an inspiring story?

Mhm! Lets make it something good!

We will be relying on you and Swift to provide information about these knights and Coral! I have faith in you!

Hmm...Coral gets kidnapped by Personae a lot. And Mako's weakness is hard candy.

Kidnapped by Personae . . . that is at least easy to work with.

Right! They couldn't speak because Dream was taking them to a secret place, and he sealed their mouths shut.

With duct tape.

Me neither... I've met one annoying guy from Coral, I guess.

They're quite outgoing as a whole. I've spoken to them a few times.

Yeah, I'm sure you have. So a time an outgoing team couldn't speak, huh?

[snorts, but says nothing]

If it's meant to be inspiring, perhaps we should focus on their struggles and how they bravely overcame them.

Any particular struggles in mind, or do we have to make somethin' up from scratch for that?

I'm sure it's very difficult for an outgoing team to deal with not being able to speak . . . communication is also an issue, of course. Perhaps it leads to some misunderstandings.

That's better than nothing. Saya will surely be able to help. She's popular enough. She will be in charge of giving us information!

Yeah, sounds good. [we have saya on our side let's make up the BEST STORIES EVER]

Swift is also a gatherer of information, so we ought to do quite well. It's only a matter of lying convincingly.

Mako is a knight with a quiet and reserved personality who has the ability to manipulate fire. He's likely also something of a noble type.

[pause]

There's more, but it likely isn't suited to a game like this. I'm afraid I don't know anything about Fakir.

A noble? And perhaps we will simply leave the character of Fakir ambiguous in our story.

They get kidnapped a lot by Personae. Especially one named Dream.
